Ghajini – Music Review

Ghajini

Ghajini is obviously Aamir Khan’s most awaited movie of this year. The music was released on November 21, and the movie is expected to release on December 25.

Music is by A.R.Rahman and lyrics by Prasoon Joshi. This is my review of Ghajini.

Soundtrack consists of

1. Guzarish

2. Aye Bachchu

3. Kaise Mujhe

4. Behka

5. Latoo

Guzarish

This song sung by Javed Ali, is a soothing melody. The tune seems to be simple and is surely catchy. It has already become a hit. This song suits Javed Ali’s voice – good choice by Rahman. I guess this is equivalent to ‘Suttum Vizhi’ of Tamil version.

Remarks: Good melody.

Aye Bachchu

This song is sung by Suzanne. It is modern. The starting of the song sounds like ‘Mere Buddy’ from Bhoothnath, but I would say it is just a coincidence, because as the song progress you cannot find any similarity. And remember music is by A.R.Rahman – he never copies! It is obviously a dance number and i guess it is equivalent to ‘X Machi Y Machi’

Remarks: Modern.

Kaise Mujhe

Sung by Benny Dayal and Shreya Ghoshal, is a slow song. Is it romantic? (I’m not sure) The tune is not that simple. The orchestration is good. Shreya Ghoshal, though joins after half of the song, has done a wonderful job as always. She has an amazing voice which improves day by day! And Benny Dayal, why does he sound different every time I listen to him?

Remarks: Not so romantic but pleasing.

There is also an instrumental version of Kaise Mujhe.

Behka

This is sung by Karthik. It is stylish with lots of variations. Karthik is singing for Rahman after so many years. He has improved a lot. This song is totally different. The promo of this song had Aamir in six different looks! I guess this song is equivalent to ‘Oru Malai’ of Tamil version.

Remarks: A different Jazz.

Latoo

This song sung by Shreya Ghoshal is a peppy number. The melody is catchy. This song proves that Shreya Ghoshal is versatile. Oh man! She has an amazing voice. Nothing much to say about this song. I think this is equivalent to ‘Rasathulla’ of Tamil version

Remarks: Peppy number.

Ghajini is a commercial Bollywood album sans ‘Punjabi beats’ 🙂 (that makes it different from the rest)! You cannot expect more than this for a commercial film. Guzarish has already become a hit and the rest I’m sure will become popular before the movie releases (more than a month left). This is obviously not Rahman’s best musical album but it will surely fit the situation. Listen to it as many times as you can and it will grow on you. Like every other A.R.Rahman fan I am waiting to experience that magical touch which is hidden right now.

 

My rating : 3.5/5

Buy the songs from T-Series Webstores.

 

Good Day folks!

    Im a true a Aamir and ARR fan.
    beleive me the music of Ghajini is so pathetic.
    Never expected this from ARR,Im very much dissappointed
    and so will all ARR fans be.
    I was waitin like hell for Aamir’s Ghajini music,but this is what I got..Only ‘Guzarish’ is number which I found was mind soothing ..Lyrics are like bakwass.jus listen to it and find it on your own.
